6 James bought 16 tickets for a concert. The good tickets cost $8 and bad tickets
cost $5. He spent a total of $113 on all the tickets. Write a system that can be used to
determine how many good tickets James bought and how many bad ticket he bought.

James bought 11 good tickets and 5 bad tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost of each good ticket = $8

Cost of each bad ticket = $5

Total amount spent = $113

Total tickets bought = 16

Let,

x be the number of good tickets bought

y be the number of bad tickets bought

x+y=16     Eqn 1

8x+5y=113    Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 5

5(x+y=16)

5x+5y=80    Eqn 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(8x+5y)-(5x+5y)=113-80

8x+5y-5x-5y=33

3x=33

Dividing both sides by 3

Putting x=11 in Eqn 1

11+y=16

y=16-11

y=5

Hence,

James bought 11 good tickets and 5 bad tickets.

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
